[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have argued that the environment in totality is not a positive one or conducive to learning -- education simply isn't valued by a large segment of the student body. With a dropout rate of around 30%, a teen pregnancy clinic in the building, gang-related fights on a daily basis (at least that was the case two years ago -- Sherman says it's basically the same five or six families every time -- a Hatfield and McCoys thing, but whatever) and a chaotic culture where kids roamed the hallways freely between classes, I decided it wasn't the right environment for my kids.[/quote] Sounds like quite a lovely school even if only 1/3 of this is true. Since my husband and I both did not get 800s on our math SATs (with almost certainly guaranteed admission to TJ for their genius children) like the PP, I am quite happy that my children will not be going anywhere near TC Williams![/quote]
